Exegesis
The construct marʼašoteikhem {מַרְאֲשׁוֹתֵיכֶם | mar-ʼa-šo-tê-khem} ‘from your heads’ designates the locus of loss, and ʼāṭeret tifʼartekhem {עֲטֶרֶת תִּפְאַרְתְּכֶם | ʻǎ-ṭe-ret tip-ár-te-khem} ‘crown of your glory’ links royal insignia to personal honor. The sequence from command to justification, characteristic of prophetic admonitions, heightens the urgency of impending judgment.
